Scientific paper

By using the 1-m reflecting telescope at Weihai Observatory of Shandong University, the transit observations of seven stars are carried out to accurately estimate the physical parameters of extrasolar planets. These seven stars, including TrES-1, TrES-3, XO-2, WASP-1, WASP-2, WASP-3 and HAT-P-7, are known to have planetary systems. We will introduce the observations and data reduction, show the light curves of the transits of extrasolar planets and present some derived physical parameters. After analyzing the light curves of transits, a more intensive research in the next stage is anticipated.
